It has been cloudy for several weeks over Manila but last night, the heavens cleared so I set up my birding gear to have a go at Jupiter...

Hope I got the moon names right...

Jun 14, 2007 20:12 | #11 Thanks, everybody.... Posidon324 wrote in post #3379030 Admittedly, I know very little about night photography, but out of curiosity, why boost the ISO up so high? Do you find that a longer exposure allows too much light for these types of shots? At 4525 mm, I found that 1/30 sec was the slowest I could go to "freeze" Jupiter. At f/51, I needed ISO 1600 for proper exposure... Romy Ocon, Philippine Wild Birds
